Wayne Rooney: Man Utd forward denies transfer request in 2013

Manchester United and England forward Wayne Rooney

Manchester United’s Wayne Rooney has admitted falling out with Sir Alex Ferguson during his final season but denies putting in a transfer request.

Rooney says he went to see Ferguson, who was United manager for 26 years, after being dropped in 2013.

“It’s not just me who’s had a fall-out with him,” added the forward, 29, in Rooney – The Man Behind The Goals, to be shown on BBC One on 5 October.

“I don’t know what happened or why that came out that way.”

The England captain added: “I went in to see him and just said if you’re not going to play me it might be better if I moved on – then all of a sudden it’s all over the press I put in a transfer request, which I never did.”
